Both small pdf retailers, and the pdf producers have grounds to be unhappy with RPGNow's policies of exclusivity. And yes this makes it difficult to sympathize with James Mathe's rant.The current rate on RPGNow is 70% exclusive and 65% non-exclusive. <a href="http://www.rpgnow.com/join.php" target="_blank">http://www.rpgnow.com/join.php</a>This isn't so exclusive as to make the 'exclusive' option the obvious best choice, althought the nebulous "more free promotion on the marketplace" could be significant. Ignoring that here's a quick example:Assume you can find another sales channel that would give you the same 70% rate, and you are selling a product for $10.If you could make 100 sales on RPGNow exclusively at 70%, your revenue=$700If you could make 15 sales on your other channel at 70% and 95 on a non-exclusive RPGNow at 65%, then your revenue =$713.50Would the extra 2% revenue be worth setting up and maintaining the extra sales portal? Unclear. Our hypothetical case would need more information.</blockquote>
